Scrivener is performing excruciatingly long autosaves every couple of minutes, as well as every single time I switch docs in split mode. I have set the autosave pref to 300 seconds, and unchecked making zip file backups. Nothing seems to help. It's really hampering productivity, and breaks concentration.

I've read tons of recommendations for older versions, but this is my first project in Scrivener 3 and I seriously doubt the need to reindex, etc.

Ironic, because in every other respect except compiling (which might as well be glossalalia) I love this app and pray for MS Word-addicted editors all over the world to break free and come out of the caves.

I'm seeing the same repetative updating search indexes events on both macOS and iOS. In addition to the problems reported in my various messages (such as viewtopic.php?f=3&t=52067) about Scrivener for macOS marking open projects changed when they have not been as this then interferes with synching between macOS and iOS. And in answer to kewms' question this happens on projects created in version 2 and upgraded by version 3 and new version 3 projects.
